We use all FDA-approved treatments for psychiatric conditions.  For example, the first treatment choice for ADHD is a stimulant medicine like Adderall or Ritalin.  If you are unable to take this type of medication we can try Strattera or Wellbutrin.

Depression is treated mostly with SSRIs (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors) like Prozac, Zoloft, Lexapro and SNRIs (serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors) Effexor, Cymbalta. There are also older medications known as tricyclics and antipsychotics that are used in moderate to severe depression. 

Anxiety is primarily treated with SSRIs, but some individuals require benzodiazepines, such as Xanax, Ativan or Klonopin.  These medicines are first line treatment for panic attacks and should be used sparingly.

After you schedule your appt, a link to get into your provider's virtual office is sent to you.  Show up for your appt via secure telemedicine link https://doxy.me/focusedmind.

This is kind of like Zoom, but for medical appts.

You can use your link from your cell phone or laptop or tablet computer.  It works best with the Chrome browser. If you use another browser,  just click on it and test it out prior to the visit. It is your responsibility to be able to have working browser to sign in for your appointment.

Telemedicine appointments have been around for about 10 years, but have become much more popular since the COVID-19 pandemic.  Telemedicine has been a life-saver to people who live in rural towns and must travel long distances to get help. This safe and convenient method of seeing a psychiatrist has become the method of choice for many patients.  It is here to stay as we continue our journey together in this digital world.
